COLUMBUS, Ohio -- After three years of coming up short in qualifying, Justin Leonard earned a return to the U. Harrison Barnes Team USA Jersey .S. Open. The 1997 British Open champion, who has won 12 times on the PGA Tour but not since 2008, was among the 16 players at the Columbus site who qualified for the U.S. Open at Pinehurst June 12-15. "Itll be fun," said Leonard, wholl turn 42 on the day of the Opens final round. "And Pinehurst is one of my favourites, so a little extra incentive there." Leonard was co-medallist through 36 holes on Monday at Brookside and Scioto. He tied for 15th at the Open in Pinehurst in 1999 when Payne Stewart won and tied for 23rd in the 2005 championship won by Michael Campbell. Among those also qualifying were Bo Van Pelt, Mark Wilson, Kevin Tway and Luke Guthrie, South Koreas Seung-Yul Noh and Hyung Sung Kim, Australias Aaron Baddeley and Rod Pampling and Englands Paul Casey. Playing 18 holes on each of two difficult courses after playing four rounds nearby at the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village, Baddeley said its a grueling way to spend what is usually a day off. "To come out and play good is a bonus," he said after tying for 37th at the Memorial on Sunday. "I played really nice last week. I made like a million birdies. I just made way too many bogeys." The Columbus site featured the most PGA Tour players. Another big tour site was in Memphis, Tennessee, where David Toms, J.B. Holmes, Joe Ogilvie and David Gossett were among the 13 to earn spots. Gossett, a former PGA Tour winner, was an alternate out of 18-hole local qualifying. Now that Mondays qualifying is over, 150 players are in the U.S. Open. Six spots remaining will be for anyone who gets into the top 60 in the world ranking after this week, and the rest will be distributed to alternates. The order of alternates was not released. A year ago in Columbus, Justin Thomas came down the stretch with a shot at qualifying only to finish bogey-bogey at Brookside and miss making the field by a shot. This year, he hit his second shot to the closing hole to almost exactly the same spot but was able to make a par. He finished at 5-under and shared medallist honours with Leonard and Noh. "Its cool to finish in the same spot and do that. I played so well last year and those last two holes were the difference," he said. "Thisll be my first major and Im looking forward to a great experience." There were also those who kicked away quality chances to make the Open field. Danny Lee, who won the U.S. Amateur at Pinehurst in 2008, was at 7-under on the day when he triple-bogeyed the 13th and then doubled the 14th at Scioto. Michael Putnam was among the leaders until he played his final six holes in five over and had to go to a 5-man playoff for the final three spots. He then lost out on the second hole and will be an alternate. -- In San Francisco, Jason Gore failed to earn one of five spots. Gore played in the final group in 2005 and was referred to as the "Prince of Pinehurst." One of the spots went to Kevin Sutherland, a former World Golf Championship winner. Sutherland recently received an exemption to the U.S. Senior Open this summer after turning 50. He last played a PGA Tour event in August. -- In Houston, former U.S. Junior Amateur champion Cory Whitsett went 66-66 and was medallist by five shots to lead three qualifiers at Lakeside Country Club. Whitsett, an All-American at Alabama, was on the winning Walker Cup team last year. -- NCAA champion Cameron Wilson of Stanford missed by one shot qualifying for the U.S. Open in Purchase, New York. -- Henrik Norlander of Sweden earned one of two spots in Roswell, Georgia. -- Billy Hurley III, a former Navy officer, earned one of four spots at Rockville, Maryland. Taylor Funk, the 18-year-old son of Fred Funk, shot 76 in his second round at Woodmont and missed by three shots. -- Aron Price of Australia got the fourth and final spot from Vero Beach, Florida, without facing a playoff. His 142 tied him with Landon Michelson of Rice, who had rounds of 71-71 at Quail Valley. Michelson, however, realized he signed for a 70. He put down a Instead of a playoff against Price for the last spot, Michelson was disqualified. -- At Springfield, Ohio, Brian Stuard won one of three spots by going 64-65. Chris Thompson and amateur Will Grimmer also qualified. -- In Creswell, Oregon, where 50 players battled for two spots, Zac Blair and Clayton Rask earned trips to Pinehurst.

The San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders are giving it a try, too.FRANKFURT, Germany -- Title holder Bayern Munich won 1-0 at Viktoria Plzen on Tuesday to advance to the knockout stage of the Champions League, while group rival Manchester City reached the second round for the first time by outclassing CSKA Moscow 5-2. Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid missed early opportunities to qualify by being held to draws -- and both had to come from behind. PSG was held 1-1 at home by Anderlecht and Real settled for a 2-2 draw at Juventus. In a match with few thrills, substitute Mario Mandzukic scored with a second-half header to put Bayern through, while a hat trick from Alvaro Negredo and a brace from Sergio Aguero propelled City into the next stage. Bayern Captain Philipp Lahm said his team had "slept through the early stage of the match. Perhaps we think its going to be easy." Bayern has four wins from four games and tops Group D with 12 points, while second-place City has nine following its victory over CSKA. "It shows how strong a team we have," Guardiola said, adding his teams performance will get even better. "We have a new coach, new players. We need time before we stabilize our game." It was Bayerns ninth consecutive win in the Champions League over two seasons, equaling Barcelonas record from the 2002-03 campaign. Bayern and City advanced with two matches to spare. "Every coach would have to be happy about that and Im not an exception," Guardiola said through a translator. "I hope it is a boost for us and we will be able to improve that record at CSKA Moscow." Aguero, who has scored in six straight games, converted a penalty in the third minute, added a second in the 20th and then fed Negredo as City raced into a 3-0 lead after half an hour in Manchester. "Aguero is in a great moment, not only because hes scoring but because the whole team is playing offensive football and thats important," Citys coach Manuel Pellegrini said. CSKA striker Seydou Doumbia also scored twice -- either side of Negredos second goal in the 51st -- before the Spain striker completed his hat trick with the last touch of the game from a header. "The minimum target was to qualify for the next round but its not the only target," Citys coach Manuel Pellegrini said. "Im sure the team we play (in the last 16) will not be very happy to play against us." Group A leader Manchester United and second-place Bayer Leverkusen were both held to 0-0 draws away from home, at Real Sociedad and Shakhtar Donetsk, respectively. Robin van Persie, who substituted Wayne Rooney, hit the post with a powerful penalty shortly after driving against the same piece of the woodwork. Uniteds Marouane Fellaini was sent off late in the game as Real Sociedad won its first point. "That was a game we should have won. It was there for us to take the points, get ourselves in a really strong position, and near enough get clear," United manager David Moyes said. Derrick Rose Team USA Jersey. "At the moment were still top of the group and in a good position." Leverkusen came home with a point from Shakhtar Donetsk, which remained third in the group. United has eight points, Leverkusen seven, Shakhtar five and Sociedad one. Juventus and nine-time champion Real Madrid provided an entertaining 2-2 draw, leaving the Spanish side on the verge of qualifying for the knockout stages. "I dont think weve yet reached our best, were still improving. Juventus is a solid and strong squad with good talent, I think in the end they will pass the round with us," Reals coach Carlo Ancelotti said. Juventus dominated the first half and Arturo Vidal gave the Italian side a halftime lead from the penalty spot before Cristiano Ronaldo levelled for Madrid with his 21st goal in 16 matches this season and turned provider minutes later as Gareth Bale put Carlo Ancelottis side in front. Ronaldo leads the competition with eight goals, equaling the group-stage record shared by Ruud van Nistelrooy, Filippo Inzaghi and Hernan Crespo. Madrids lead lasted just five minutes before Fernando Llorente headed Juventus level. Madrid dropped its first points but remains top of Group B with 10 points, while Juventus slipped to bottom spot after Copenhagen beat Galatasaray 1-0 with an early goal by Daniel Braaten. "We need to beat Copenhagen at home and then play for everything against Galatasaray," Juventus coach Antonio Conte said. "We should be fortified because we had a great performance and a good result against a really strong team. My players showed on the pitch that we can play against anyone. " Galatasaray and Copenhagen have four points, and Juventus three. PSG crushed Anderlecht 5-0 two weeks ago, but this time needed an equalizer from Zlatan Ibrahimovic after the visitors took the lead against the run of play midway through the second half. Despite playing the last 10 minutes with an extra man after Anderlecht midfielder Sacha Kljestan was sent off, PSG failed to break down a resilient Belgian side. "Before talking about victory and how many goals youre going to score, you have to win the match," PSG coach Laurent Blanc said. "We were too average, including in front of goal because we missed six or seven chances. Its a good wake up call." Midfielder Demy de Zeeuw gave Anderlecht the lead -- with his teams first goal of the campaign -- in the 68th minute after a quick counterattack, but Ibrahimovic levelled just two minutes later. PSG leads with 10 points in Group C and second-place Olympiakos has seven after beating Benfica 1-0, courtesy of an early goal by Kostas Manolas. Benfica has four points and Anderlecht one. Benfica missed a dozen chances and coach Jorge Jesus kept throwing up his arms in disbelief every time Olympiakos goalkeeper Roberto denied his team.
